Carrie Underwood is the cover girl for Allure's October 2008 issue. She was photographed by Michael Thompson in Memphis. Famed art director Paul Cavaco of Keeble, Cavaco & Duka conceptualized the shoot and Diego da Silva did the hair.

You can see behind-the-scenes snapshots on the Allure website via this link. Some snippets from the accompanying interview, courtesy of Allure Magazine and Daily Stab blog.

On an unfaithful guy in her past:

“I don’t want to name names, even though he probably deserves it, but he fooled around,” she tells the magazine. “Oh, yeah, and lied! It was one of those things that everyone knew but me. He was a good liar. Nobody would come out and tell me. And he seemed perfect in every way.”

On splitting from Chace Crawford of “Gossip Girl”:

“We didn’t have a fight. No one cheated. It plain didn’t work.”

On how being famous makes dating harder:

“You never really know why somebody wants to be around you, or if they do genuinely like you,” Underwood — the winner of the fourth season of American Idol — tells Allure magazine in its September issue. “I wish everyone had a label on their forehead so you could automatically tell their intentions. Sometimes you just wish that no one wanted anything from you.”

On how her ex Tony Romo, who is currently dating Jessica Simpson, still calls her sometimes, but she doesn’t always pick up the phone:

“The phone will ring and it’ll be him, and I’ll maybe not answer. We were both small town people doing very big things, and we relied on each other, dealing with fame.”

Here are bits from her interview in the accompanying article:

About the rumors of her never eating
: “I’ve been accused of not eating for 10 years. If I hadn’t eaten that long I’d be awfully hungry.”

Davide and herself wanting a fourth child: “I’d love to have a girl - just for all the clothes I’ve got to hand down.”

How she’d describe herself: “I’m incredibly ordinary, a normal-looking girl, and I just make the best of what I have.”

More images and information can be found via the Allure Magazine web link. The issue is on the news stands beginning in August 2008.
